I have published the C++ source code for extracting robust hue histograms which is a color descriptor for image patches. You can get more information from this page: Robust Hue Histogram.

This is an interesting video showing 3 smart graphics designers which took them 4 days to recreate the Omaha beach invasion scene of the Saving Private Ryan film.

I took the Geekness test here and got 85 which probably makes me a High-Level Computer Geek

And it also made me a Cool High Nerd ;D

Puppy linux is what I call it the best of lightweight linux distributions. I have a quite old machine at home, a PIII 500 MHz with 386 MB RAM. While other distros crawl on it (even those which claim to be lightweight), I found Puppy to be rocking on it blazingly fast. It has a technology to load itself to RAM and become quite fast even on old machines. It comes in less than 100 MB and has a wide range of nice applications suitable for older machines. So if you want to breathe life into your old machines, just give it a try. You won’t regret it .
